कहाँ तलक शब-ओ-रोज़ आह-ए-दर्द-ए-दिल कहिए
हर एक बात को आख़िर कुछ इंतिहा भी है
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
The poet asks, 'To what extent should I utter these sighs of heartache, for every thing eventually has a limit.'
Explanation
This profound couplet by Mir Taqi Mir speaks to the universal truth of acceptance. It questions the endless lamenting over heartbreak. The core message is that while the pain of the heart (dard-e-dil) can feel eternal, nothing lasts forever. It's a gentle reminder to the listener—and to ourselves—that even the deepest sorrow has a limit, an 'inteha.' It encourages us to find peace in the inevitability of change and to move past perpetual grief.
